Our Background
The company was founded in 2004 with the aim of offering the best telephone answering service in the UK and initially we took on any size and type of customer.
Over time we realised that different sizes of customers had different needs and we worked best with small, some might say micro businesses, with typically up to five people.
We are a small business ourselves run by Clare and Ian Marshall. As owners of the business we handle all new enquiries ourselves. If you call Office Answers the chances are one of us will answer, but if not you will be talking to one of our receptionists who will take a message, just like they would for you.

Our Approach To Business
We are a small business ourselves run by Clare and Ian Marshall. As owners of the business we handle all new enquiries ourselves. If you call Office Answers the chances are one of us will answer, but if not you will be talking to one of our receptionists who will take a message, just like they would for you.
By the end of 2004 we had 20 customers and knew them all intimately. Clare knew who had been on holiday and who had young children at home.
Many years later and we have grown a fair bit, but we still like to have that same interaction with our customers, leaving you thinking we still only have 20 customers.
Automated Answering
If you want a virtual reception service but do not need a live receptionist then our Automated Answering system is always a popular choice. Nothing to install, everything is done using our centrally managed system. We agree the script with you, do the recording, configure the system, and make test calls.
Virtual Office
Many people want to keep their home address private so use a business address or mail forwarding service to create the impression their business is based in the centre of a city or town. To complete the picture we can provide a city telephone number with calls either routed to you directly, to our automated system, or answered by our team of receptionists.
